[VIDEO REVIEW] Xtreme Guard Spartan Glass for Nexus 6 - Nexus 6 Accessories

Hoping that Rev. 3 is the final version, it's getting better; but still 1-2mm off on the edges. Overall a good product for $6

Wait is that the revised version?
Also I read that every screen protector has a slightly different amount of curve which makes some glass protectors perfect for some people and too big for other people

He said it's the first. Yes It's really depends on your luck.
If you want a edge free from bubbles, get the orzly one. It's much further from the curvature of the screen.

I bought this and am going to return it. They shipped in in a non-padded envelope so of course it came in shattered.

I already have the Orzly one and I don't like how it barely covers the screen. Also I'm pretty sure he misunderstood your question because he wrote "hope that revision number 3 is the final version" which implies that he had the revised version.

Tempered glass screen protectors [INDIA]

Okay, guys, I don't know how it's not mentioned even though we know they are the best screenguards out there.
Here are some I found over eBay :
http://www.ebay.in/sch/ScratchGuard...3/i.html?_from=R40&_nkw=moto+e+tempered+glass
Surely, they are not Spigen's or Orzly's or of some known brand, in fact I confirmed and got a reply that it's made in China and is generic but equally strong and the cuts are nicely made.
Do you think buying it is worth it?
I mean, they're not really expensive at all.
Has anybody bought any of them ?
Btw, when I searched, I found out that Orzly has also made a tempered glass screen protector for our phone but, obviously, it ain't available in India.
i wanted to buy a glass screen protector. can any one suggest one?? there are tons on flipkart which one i should get?? any brand to look for??
Ordered one from ebay. From what I extensively searched, it seems Corning glass is fracture resistant, not necessarily scratch-resistant. There are conflicting views on either sides. I just thought better safe than sorry. Also, I have had a pretty bad expierence with screen-guards. Scratch easily. And the tempered glass is not so costly either, although it is unbranded. Got this one.
In the ebay list, I chose this one cuz its got the maximum sales. Regards to other ones, they either seem confused if its meant for iphone or moto e, or the thickness they mention is inconsistent(0.3/0.26/0.4) or have less sales. I had no other criteria for selection since its unbranded. Hoping for the best.

I already bought a matte one before these came out.
And, it has already started showing scratches. I don't think it's gonna last over a month.
Anyway, do tell us about your experience and if you don't mind, share a few photos too, of how it looks, how much thick it gets, etc.

Would it be possible for you to post a few pictures, and maybe answer these questions :
1. Is it actually oleophobic? (prevents oil and fingerprints)
2. Did bubbles come up while putting it on?
3. Has it affected the resolution?
4. Does touch feel the same? Or worsens?

1. Definitely not oleophobic. In fact, seems to be a fingerprint magnet.2. Yes, bubbles did come up, but since one can take it off, I managed to try it on about 3 times. 3. Not affected touch at all, nor the screen quality. 4. I would post a few pics, but it wont show a thing. its not at all visible.

Just them using a generic stock image for now. I'm sure it will change once the final design of the screen protector is finished.
Jesus $34.95 for a screen protector? Hopefully it comes with a midget to apply it for me perfectly, I would just mess up the application like I always do with screen protectors.
I'm flexible on the included midget, I'll also accept an attractive woman to apply it perfectly.
Sent back Otterbox Alpha glass
I bought the Otterbox Alpha Glass for Nexus 6 from Amazon for, like, $1000 (okay, it was closer to $37). I didn't like it because it didn't seem to stick on either short edge and parts of the long ends of the phone. I figured it was just me. I asked to have it exchanged. Then I watched someone on Youtube install his, and he ran into the exact same problem. So I think I will just get a refund and then... I don't know. I've already tried the expensive plastic one from Zagg with no luck.

The Best/Case Friendly Tempered Glass Screen Protector w/easy installation

The verizon branded S8 screen protector is great quality, cheap and easy to install. (I purchased it for $26 on the VZW website)
All you have to do is clean up your phone real nice
Then set it inside of the guide piece that comes in the box.
Take off the plastic from the sticky side and set the screen protector on the guide.
Push down on the protector and take off the plastic from the upper side of the protector and BOOM you're done.
It fits in cases without lifting and doesn't cover any of the sensors.
The only complaint I would have is that you can see some dots in direct sunlight but that's a non-issue if you turn the brightness up or just don't be in direct sunlight
Let me know what you guys think. I recommend you try one for yourself. Looks better in person. sorry for the giant pics
If you have any questions about it let me know. Oh and there are no dead spots for touch and it responds no loss in sensitivity.
it is full adhesive on the entire protector? I just looked it up on my corporate Verizon site and it has a Samsung part number so I am pretty sure this is the official glass screen protector that samsung was rumored to be coming out with. I went ahead and ordered it since I get a discount. Part number for anybody interested :SAMDM1PKGSPBK

From what I can tell, it is only glued around the outside, but they did a good enough job so it doesn't feel like it lifts in the center or anything

I stopped by my local Verizon store. It is $45 and they claimed the whole thing had glue. I suspected the guy was full of crap when he said that. I passed on it for now. I am leaning toward trying one, but don't have that much cash right now. Thanks for all of the info.

Apparently Verizon brands all their generic stuff similarly. The guy at the store told me they do the same for all brands. That being said this thing is more trash, screen sensitivity is worse than the GPEL I had on. Funny thing was right after install it was perfect and its slowly getting worse.

I'm either going wet or none. I heard mention in a video that the current glass ones without full glue aren't so nice if you plan to get the phone wet, which I do.

I got the Iluvvitt and ZAGG tempered glass. Both are basically crap. They are designed the exact same, with the adhesive only being on the edges. The result is a constant halo effect, and because there is a slight gap between the phone screen and the protector, you get a "rainbow effect" when you turn the phone at different angles. Same exact problem with all of the glass screen protectors and my LG V20.
Yeah the reviews for the verizon one are terrible. Is it the the curved display that has made it hard to make a good tempered glass protecter for S6, S7E, & S8?

From what I've seen, yes. For some reason they can't or just don't put adhesive on the whole protector, only the edges.

Film protector from Ultimate Shield (review/opinion) with pics

Hi all, been using OP phones for a while now, and since the 3, it has been really impossible to find a good glass screen protector worth the money, as we all well know.
I have then gave up on them and have decided to try a film type, since I take good care of my phones and really never drop them.
So I usually don't take the time to write about that, but really I feel like I should say good things about this one brand (first time using those "wet application" protectors, so the same may apply to other brands, I'm just happy with this one on first try).
First, they do free shipping anywhere in the world. The protector and small accessories come in a simple hard back enveloppe. I think that's good for us, as well as smart.
Second, and linked to the first point, they have a good customer support. My problem was that when entering my shipping address, I could not select Hong Kong as a "country". So I emailed them asking about this, and within a few hours, I had a nice reply and the customer rep had activated HK in the drop down.
Then the product itself.
It is not too hard to apply, really. Follow the steps and you'll be good. They recommand to wait 8-12 hours to turn on the phone again, but I need my phone as an alarm clock, so I waited like 2 hours and all is well. All in all, doing it in the evening, it took maybe 30 mins to install (with waiting to dry up a bit).
The film sticks well, even on the edges of the screen, and it is hard to tell it is there (well, under low angle light, you can notice a very slight "orange peel" effect). On the other hand, touch feeling is really as if there was nothing there.
I tested with the slim official OnePlus cases, as well as the official carbon bumper case, and no problem to notice at all. I also have a Spigen case, but I don't dare trying it, it looks like it "crawls" up a bit much on the edges of the screen. I expect that any slim cases, or those that are not too tight on the edges won't be a problem.
I also ordered one for my wife's S8+, and have installed it as well. Will post pictures this evening when she gets home and I can use her phone for pictures, so you can see how it looks. (for her, I took a full body coverage, and I'll post some pictures of that, so you can see how it goes, and how it looks on different phones).
So all in all, I liked the company attitude, the price (8 GBP for my screen only coverage for OP5, and 12 GBP for S8+), free delivery and of course the product itself.
Let me know if you have questions, I know I personnaly am always looking for info before trying those protectors. God knows I've wasted enough money on many useless ones :crying:
Edit :
have added pics so you can see how it looks (the slight orange peel effect), and also how it goes really fully to the edges
Woow it looks really good!

It does, yes.
I've been using that for a few days now and it's really hard to tell it's there.
Also something I noticed with usage is that it's very fingerprint resistant. Maybe better than the naked screen in that respect.
Can't really comment on long term durability but at least it's very good at the moment.
Having a discount of 25% today i took the risk and ordered it
Oh cool, hope it'll work for you as well as it does for me
I have a spigen case too, you sure you don't want to try it ahah?

Can't say about that one!
I ordered it long time ago. Haven't tried it yet. I have nilkin glass now. Since I want to protect whole screen and I have a otterbox case... I will apply film soon. Fingers crossed
Ordered one today, got tired of every single tempered glass protector that has adhesive only on the sides and lets the dust go under the screen.. Let's hope this is as good as advertised!
Yeah, let us know if it works well for you guys too
Ordered! Waiting on shipment
Mine arrived, pretty simple package but it made its way to Hamburg Germany without problems :laugh:
Will apply it when in clean surrounding ;p

where to buy original screen protector.

Hi all, I'm asking if anyone has found a place where is possible to get the original screen protector that comes with the phone and already applied.
This is why I'm tired to waste so much money in trying screen protections the doesn't fit the device. The only one working perfectly, was the original, applied by huawei.
Please help.
I don't care glass protections, but at last plastic one is OK for me.
I think that I need only to know where to buy the original huawei screen protector, as I've asked above. No other types, not similar ones. Only exactly the same.
It's not the best, but it works well for me. So I need help in finding the original one. Thanks who can help me .

I've got the £11.99 one from this page and it's fantastic.
https://www.ultimateshield.co.uk/search?q=P20 pro
Complete coverage, fitting went perfectly and it's tough.
No rainbow, no real glare and the glass is very very clear. Plus it's 9H so it'll take a pretty beefy knock..
The only concern I would have is whatever case you have, if the lip is obtrusive or onto the screen then it may lift.
PS: the stock one is awful pal, there are no iffs or buts about it, it lifts, it scratches and it won't take a knock?
